The same ballistic rocket system Iskander has been already installed in Kaliningrad region near the Poland's border. It can hit Warsaw, Vilnius, Tallinn and Riga. It appears to be a serious thread for post-soviet countries in the Baltic region and central Europe. Russians are dangerous and deceitful because they installed the system after Russia-USA reset and pro-russian policy led by local governments (which I hate) in the region. It is a violation of the agreements and promises given to Obama.

@Wojbalc In the first - You have a wrong information. If you want, you can believe stupid article in "The Wall Street Journal", but it is not true. It is only politics propaganda.

In the second - My videos are not tied with politics. They are military only, no more. In my opinion, it is not cleverly put bad estimation for vid from some politics ideas.

@Wojbalc I do not  think these missiles have been placed in Kaliningrad yet, though Putin has threatened to do this. Even if they are placed in Kaliningrad, who cares? The US still has all sorts of military options, and these missiles do not instantly make Russia strong again. In any case, Russia and the USA are not enemies.

@cythera431 It will be make for a reciprocal nuclear attack on PRO bases in Europe. Now Iskander"s launch range is over 500 km. But Russia never will make it the first.

[cythera431]

@TulaKirill Russia is a great nation and it deserves a better leader than Putin. The only way Russia and USA will get in a nuclear exchange is by accident, but this is a real danger. Neither side needs over 2000 strategic nuclear warheads.

@cythera431 I don't like to talk politics. Therefore I will tell short. Never any country from the West wanted good for my country, especially the USA.

P.S. Certainly it doesn't concern usual people of these countries.

lets take some american bases out

[corporacionmonstruo]

what is a "terminal phase optoelectronic homing system" ?

[pr163aa]

Отличная штука эскандер, жаль, что в России запороли оборонку. И всех единиц вооружения страны можно на пальцах пересчитать.

@TulaKirill как то впервые увидел данные о передачи данных на командные комплексы,16 кб\с это много или мало для такого пункта информации?
